This feature is related to the network and provides interfaces of configuring and querying the information of the network mode, such as getting the network registration status and setting the network searching mode.

Note: It is recommended that you should configure the APN information of the corresponding operator when using SIM cards of different operators. If the APN information is not configured or the configuration is incorrect, the module may not register on the network. See dataCall.setPDPContext for methods of how to configure the APN information.

Parameter	Description
flag	Cell type. Range: 0–3. 0: Current serving cell. 1: Neighbour cell. 2: Intra-frequency neighbour cell. 3: Inter-frequency neighbour cell.
cid	Cell identity in UMTS network mode. Cell identity = RNC_ID × 65536 + Cell_ID. Range of cell identity: 0x0000000–0xFFFFFFF (The cell identity is 28 bits). It means that the first two bytes of cell identity indicate RNC_ID and the last two bytes indicate Cell_ ID. Range of Cell_ID: 0–65535.

rssi	In LTE network, RSSI indicates all received signal strength. Range: -140 to -44. Unit: dBm. Note: All series modules cannot get RSSI currently but use RSRP, excluding BC25/BG95 series module. RSRP indicates received effective signal strength. Range: -140 to -44. Unit: dBm.
rsrq	Reference signal receiving quality (RSRQ) of the LTE network. Range: -20 to -3. Note: Theoretically, RSRQ ranges from -19.5 to -3. But due to the problem of calculation method, the supported RSRQ ranges from -20 to -3. Currently, it is meaningful to get this parameter only for BC25/BG95/EC600E/EC800E series module. This parameter is meaningless for other modules.

Note: This interface will block for 3–5 seconds when searching for cells. In areas without signals, the blocking time will be longer.

net.getBand

net.getBand(netRat)

This method gets the band value in the current network mode.

Parameter:

• netRat - Integer type. Network mode. It indicates that the band of which network mode you want to set.

RAT Value	Description
0	GSM network
1	LTE network
2	Cat M network
3	NB-IoT network

Return Value:

Band value in hexadecimal.

• Currently, BG95/EG912N/EG915N/EC600N/EC800N module supports this method.
• BG95 series module does not support the band of LTE network.
• EG912N/EG915N/EC600N/EC800N module only supports the band of GSM network and LTE network.

Example:

>>> import net
>>> net.getBand(2)
'0x10000200000000090e189f'  # The band is in string type. If you need the value in integer type, int(data) can be called for changing the type.

net.bandRst

net.bandRst()

This method restores the initial set value of the band.

Return Value:

0 - Successful execution

-1 - Failed execution

Note: EG912N/EG915N/EC600N/EC800N series module supports this method.

Example:

'''
Sets to other bands first, calls this interface and checks whether it is successfully restored to the initial value.    
Initial set value of EG912N-ENAA series module: gsm_band:0x3(EGSM900/DCS1800 )  lte_band:0x8000000000480800D5(B1/B3/B5/B7/B8/B20/B28/B31/B72 )
